Some readers say it is a bit Xianxia. So I added a Xianxia tag.

And I was asked if this is a harem. 

What do you think? Do you like harem plots?

Raine traveled to the two larger islands this time. 2000 kg of stone was not a small amount. Apparently, it would be faster to collect from those two islands.

The final materials were all collected within two days, and Raine's fifth evolution began.

When the keel appeared, Raine could not help but take a breath.

This keel was twice as long as the previous one!

"Oh, no wonder it takes so much wood!"

Immediately after that, there were hulls and decks... Twenty minutes later, a behemoth was floating beside Raine.

"Holy god, this is more than thirty meters! It's a G-class warship!" Raine has never been so excited now. He never thought that only the fifth evolution, he has grown into a G-class battleship.

This ship no longer had a U-shape, the bow was lowered almost as high as the hull. The hull was longer but the width was narrower than the Portuguese light gunship that making the overall hull more slender.

In addition, the depth of the hull draft line was increased reducing the risk of overturning.

The main mast was at least thirty meters long. With four masts in total, one on the bow, two on the hull deck, and one upstairs at the stern.

On the two main masts of the hull, there were three sets of sails. With five triangular sails on the bow and a large triangular sail on the stern.

This boat had already a galleon look.

The height of the hull had increased at least a dozen meters this time. And Raine had seen what he most wanted to see, the gun!

[Transferring the host consciousness and items.]

After the transfer, Raine couldn't wait to open the personal information panel.

[Host: Raine]

[Vessel: Medium-sized multi-masted Galleon light gun sailing ship]

[Cabin: 7 (aft cabin), 1 (power cabin), 10 (crew cabin), 20 (firepower cabin), 1 (large storage cabin)]

[Crew Size: 9 (assignable positions, open for details)]

[Ship Speed: 16 knots maximum (open for details)]

[Combat Power: 2273.1 (can be viewed in the crew information and weapon system)]

[Load Capacity: 3984.4/60,000 kg (open for details)]

[Next Level of Evolution: direction optional (open for details)]

A few keywords that appeared in the basic information template made Raine's heart thump. The changes this time were so batted he didn't even know which one to look at first when he saw the data.

The number of cabins has increased dramatically! The shipping speed had increased by a huge margin, and the load capacity had reached 60 tons!

And the three most critical points.

Combat power increased by over 2000! What the hell is this?!

And the next level of evolution appeared in multiple directions? Raine hates the multiple-choice questions!

Well, anyway, let's look at them one by one.

"Open the weapon system."

In the weapon system, one of the items attracted Raine's attention.

[Fragmentation Storm Cannon: attack power (200), number (10), 1200 meters attack range. The best range is 300-800 meters. The shells have highly penetrating and cause splash damage when the shell fragments explode after hitting the target.]

"Holy shit!" Raine took a deep breath, "Attack power 200! Storm Cannon, I like this name!"

Although this ship has no ramming horn, and no bottom wooden spikes, after the Storm Cannon was added to the weapon system, there is no need for these weapons!

"Although the number is a little less, this is definitely a big killer!"

Raine sensed a bit and found 10 guns distributed in 10 fire compartments, five on each side.

In addition to the Storm Cannon, there were 10 large crossbows that occupied another 10 fire compartments.

In addition, the hull's data changed.

[The second level reinforced hull, defense power (20)]

The strengthening effect of the previous hull disappeared due to building the new ship. But the base number of the second-level reinforced hull was raised and doubled from the original 10!

"The base has been raised, so if I reinforce it later, will the reinforcement effect be raised as well?" Raine thought about it and strengthened the hull directly.

This time, the reinforcement required more than twice as much material as before. After all, the hull became larger, and the material consumption was also more.

After the reinforcement, the new data came out.

[Level 2 Reinforced Hull (Reinforcement +1), Defense (20+30)]

"The defense power is increased by 30! Good!"

"And next...Harpoon or something later, let's see the others first."

The power system did not change much, the main power equipment was still the sails plus the oars at the bottom of the ship. The increase in the number of sails gives rise to a further increase in boat speed.

Finally, Raine checked the direction of evolution.

The next level of evolution direction appeared to branch out. But unfortunately, the system did not show the information for these two directions, only giving the required materials.

Raine guessed that no matter which direction of evolution was chosen, the pearls needed for the next level were scary enough.

Regardless of what the next level is. For now, what Raine could do was strengthen himself.

"It's better to add a ramming horn, at least more means of combat." After some contemplation, Raine decided.

As a result, the metal needed for the ramming horn reached 1000 kilograms. Raine now had only 300 to 400 kilograms of metal. It seemed impossible to do.

"Damn, the ship is bigger, so it needs much more material than before."

"Forget it, then equip the bottom harpoon first."

After the upgrade, Raine could equip the number of harpoons to reach 50! Raine covered the bottom of the ship with harpoons.

After several battles, Raine found that the harpoons were important! Now he only relied on them to defend against undersea attacks.

The remaining metals were not much, Raine used them to reinforce the hull. Although the reinforcement level did not increase, the defense power was increased by 5 points.

Standing on this big ship, the crew was excited. One after another like countryfolk going into a big city, looking around carefully.

"Holy god, there are so many cabins now. I don't even know which one I'm going to live in! So spacious."

"What a big ship, you guys come to the aft floor and take a look. The view here is great!"

"Captain, this... this is artillery? Brothers, we have artillery! Wowza, what kind of shell is this? So big!"

"Look at the barrel of the cannon, the range is at least 700 meters!"

Raine snorted, "700 meters? Is it possible for a cannon that can only hit 700 meters to appear on my ship? This cannon of mine can shoot 1200 meters at most!"

"And this cannonball, don't play blindly. Once it explodes, it will cause a fragment attack."

A bunch of people were stunned and dumbfounded.

"Captain," said Onebear with a widened mouth, stammering, "then if we make the distance right and the landing point precise, won't one shell be able to blow up a ship?"

"Well, it's just okay." Raine looked like a million pearls.
